Poultry

Poultry processors are faced with a flock of challenges, from the spread of diseases to heightened water demands.

With a high risk for contamination, and the spread of disease such as salmonella, sophisticated food safety is paramount for poultry processing plants. Separating slaughter, evisceration, cutup and packaging from further processing, cooking and packaging operations is crucial to preventing cross-contamination. And air borne contaminates from kill floors and rendering areas shouldn’t mix with the air particles that surround the product processing and packaging areas. The use of pressurized mechanical and refrigeration systems to minimize the potential mixing of air and condensation is also extremely important to maintaining the sanitation of poultry processing operations.

Our work in the poultry industry is highly regarded, seen specifically in the Keystone Foods poultry processing plant. The Keystone Foods facility earned the 2010 ABC Excellence in Construction award, the 2010 ABC Excellence in Construction Safety and was named the 2009 Food Engineering Plant of the Year.

We selected Stellar to be our design-build partner in this innovative poultry processing facility because of their reputation in the food industry with significant experience in food safety. We wanted to challenge Stellar to live up to its tagline, “Taking Solutions Further,” and we could not have been more satisfied with their innovative design, execution and the professionalism of their employees.

When Royal cup first sat down with Stellar on their expansion project they let them know they had bold aspirations and high expectations. Stellar was up to the challenge, listen to Bill Smith, president of Royal Cup, describe his experience in partnering with Stellar to achieve those goals and complete a plant in Birmingham, Alabama.
